16 November OIL MARKET REPORT OCTOBER EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In October crude oil market caught a bear flu after almost gripping the $90 per barrel price level (Brent). In the beginning of October the market apparently priced in quite a lot of risks regarding U.S. threats to zero Iran s oil exports. On the second week of the month these risks suddenly started easing. It seems all the September s rally was highly speculative in nature indeed. U.S. granted 8 countries 6-months waivers on November 2, including India, South Korea, Japan and China. It was surprising for the market given several months of very aggressive rhetoric. It was believed to be a political move, to put downward pressure on oil prices, taken just days before Americans headed to the polls in mid-tern elections on the 6 th of November. Interestingly the European Union, which recently announced the creation of an economic channel to continue financial dealings with Iran, was not among those receiving waivers. However, oil exports from Iran to EU had been lowered below 100 thsd bbl / d already. China and India are much more important in this matter. OPEC signaled it could cut output in 2019 due to concerns about rising oil inventories and economic uncertainty, lurching away from a pledge made just days ago to pump flat out. A committee of producers including Russia and Saudi Arabia highlighted the next day after mid-term elections the need to prepare options for how much oil they should pump next year to prevent the market slipping back into imbalance. The group, which since May has been boosting production, said the rise in oil inventories in recent weeks coupled with fears about an economic slowdown may require changing course. Global oil markets are going through a very sensitive period - global economic growth as well, IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol said in an interview in London on the day of OPEC changing its rhetoric. If the oil producers care about the health of the growth of the global economy, which I believe they do, they should take the steps to further comfort the market. The outlook for next year is very unpredictable, according to Saudi Energy Minister Al- Falih. If the supply is too long, we should be able to cut, he said in an interview with Russia s TASS news agency. If supply is short, we have to be able to respond. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projected that U.S. crude production will average 12.06 mln bbl / d in 2019, passing the 12 mln bbl / d milestone much sooner than expected, largely on the back of increased shale oil production from the Permian basin. In 2019, the EIA said it expected production to increase 1.16 mln bbl / d from the prior year, up from the previous 1.02 mln bbl / d earlier forecast. Growing U.S. oil production and eased geopolitical risks are the main drivers of oil price unstoppable falling from maximum levels. If numbers at the end of November show stable Iran s exports in spite of U.S. sanctions then the price will likely return to $60-70 per barrel trade range. 1 / 30

1. MARKET PERFORMANCE In October crude oil market caught a «bear flu» after almost gripping the $90 per barrel price level (Brent). In the beginning of October the market priced in apparently quite a lot of risks regarding U.S. threats to zero Iran s oil exports. On the second week of the month these risks suddenly started easing. It seems all the September s rally was highly speculative in nature indeed. Effective monthly trade range of Brent spot price skyrocketed to $12.2 per bbl (15.2% to the average price of $80.5) in October. Average price was just 2% above September level when effective trade range was just $6.6 per barrel. In the end of October the price finally broke through $80 resistance. Both crude oil futures curve for Brent and WTI are in long-term backwardation, but shortterm futures are in contango now. By the end of the month, 12-months futures to spot spread in Brent crude oil increased by $4.2 per bbl to -$0.1 per bbl. 1-month Brent futures to spot surged to $1.2 per bbl, 3-month futures to spot spread also increased by $2.4 per bbl to $1.2. WTI 3-2-1 crack spreads deteriorated in October to $15.2 per bbl, 14.9% below end- September level. Brent 3-2-1 crack spread surged by 105.1% to $10.9 per bbl. Tapis 3-2-1 crack spread increased by 20.5% to $9.4 per bbl. Discount of WTI benchmark to Brent narrowed to the $8.6 per barrel level after trading close to $10 per barrel level for a while.

OPEC Algeria Angola Ecuador Gabon Iran Iraq Kuwait Libya Nigeria Qatar Saudi Arabia U.A.E. Venezuela 2. OPEC PRODUCTION According to Bloomberg assessments, total OPEC oil production in October increased by 430 thsd bbl / d to 33.33 mln bbl / d. The largest decrease this month in OPEC oil production was made by Kuwait (-40 thsd bbl / d), while export countries with substantially increasing output were Libya (+170 thsd bbl / d) and Saudi Arabia (+150 thsd bbl / d). From a y-o-y basis in October the cartel total output marked the increase in production by 780 thsd bbl / d. Saudi Arabia demonstrated the most annual crude oil production growth (+670 thsd bbl / d or 6.7%), followed by Iraq (+340 thsd bbl / d or +7.8%) and Libya (+240 thsd bbl / d or 24.5%). The most significant annual production decrease was observed in struggling Venezuela (-590 thsd bbl / d or -31.7%). Angola (-10.5%) and Iran (-10.2%) also produced considerably less crude oil in October than a year ago. In comparison with September OPEC oil output figures by Bloomberg, EIG evaluated total OPEC production equal to 32.78 mln bbl / d (17 thsd bbl / d below Bloomberg s assessment). In particular EIG printed significantly higher numbers for Iran (+272 thsd bbl / d) and Angola (+41 thsd bbl / d) relative to Bloomberg ones. Considerable downward assessments were made for Venezuela, U.A.E. and Nigeria crude oil output (-74 thsd bbl / d, -68 thsd bbl / d and -47 thsd bbl / d versus Bloomberg). Chart 2.1. OPEC crude oil output, thsd bbl / d Chart 2.2. Different assessments of OPEC crude oil output in the previous month 35,000 34,000 33,000 (Bloomberg) (EIG) 200 150 100 50 The difference between Bloomberg (+) and EIG (-) estimates, thsd bbl / d 32,000 0 31,000-50 30,000-100 29,000, EIG, EIG In accordance with EIG figures, in September OPEC as a whole increased its share in a world crude oil output by 50 bps to 38.7%. Comparing to a year ago level it is lower by 159 bps. The lost in market share does not look dramatic given appreciation in crude oil price. OPEC has finally got some success. Brent crude oil price has been above $80 per barrel for a while now. The problem is many exporting countries could return to market share competition given this high level of prices and tensions around Iran. Pace of growth in demand is still substantially above average and stocks have already been lowered significantly. 4 / 30

Assessment of Venezuela s capacities was finally lowered by 570 thsd bbl / d in January. About 80% of OPEC s potential to ramp up crude oil production is located in just 5 states, namely Saudi Arabia (820 thsd bbl / d or 35.0% of total), Venezuela (170 thsd bbl / d or 7.0% of total), Kuwait (240 thsd bbl / d or 10.0% of total), Iran (580 thsd bbl / d or 25.0% of total) and Angola (180 or 8.0%).

Nigeria lost 200 thsd bbl / d in its May s estimation of oil production capacity. Qatar s capacities fell by 140 thsd bbl / d and Venezuela s estimated capacities were lowered by other 70 thsd bbl / d in October. However, Venezuela s abilities to produce crude oil could be limited even lower in the nearest future by even 1 mln bbl / d. OPEC capacities are about to shrink not only because of Venezuela troubles, but agreed production growth. It concerns the market due to risks of potential supply outages. 5 / 30

3. NON-OPEC PRODUCTION According to the most recent EIG assessments of worldwide crude oil production, total crude oil output in non-opec states increased in September to 51.623 mln bbl / d (+880 thsd bbl / d). Comparing to the reference level in October 2016 (48.893 mln bbl / d) non- OPEC production was higher by about 2.73 mln bbl / d. The most considerable production growth in September relative to the previous month among the non-opec oil producing countries was achieved in the USA (+149 thsd bbl / d), Brazil (+96 thsd bbl / d), the U.K. (+169 thsd bbl / d) and Russia (+105 thsd bbl / d), while Canada, Mexico and India made a main cutback with oil output reduce of 4, 11 and 12 thsd bbl / d respectively. The same time from the longer-term point of view (in terms of y-o-y) non-opec crude oil output in September increased by almost 2.891 mln bbl / d or 5.9% with the U.K. (+257 thsd bbl / d or +26.9% yoy), Canada (+188 thsd bbl / d or +4.9% yoy) and the USA (+1608 thsd bbl / d or +16.8% yoy) being the main drivers of this positive tendency. This output growth was partly offset by annual production decline in Brazil (-35 thsd bbl / d or -1.3%) and Egypt (-15 thsd bbl / d or -2.5%). Chart 3.1.

According to the most recent EIG data, the USA was accounted for 13.27% of global crude oil output in September that is 107 bps higher now relative to the local maximum of 12.20% printed in February 2015. The same time natural gas liquids (NGL) production in the USA in October climbed by 85 thsd bbl / d or 2.0% on the month-to-month basis and increased by 656 thsd bbl / d or 17.5% on the yearon year basis. Crude oil net imports from the US in October decreased by 7.9% mom to a bit more than 5 bn bbl /d, while crude oil exports surging to 2.26 mln bbl / d comparing to 2.14 mln bbl / d in September. Oil products exports from the USA in October increased by 104 thsd bbl / d and the net imports of refined oil products fell by 633 thsd bbl /d. 8 / 30

DEMAND Global In September IEA presented its world oil demand estimations for the 2 nd quarter of. According to the numbers total world demand for oil in the 2 nd quarter increased by 430 thsd bbl / d or 0.4% over against the 1 st quarter of. Comparing to the 2 nd quarter of global demand for oil grew by 750 thsd bbl / d or 0.8%, partly encouraged by still strong world economic growth. The main source of global oil demand growth in the latest EIA reported quarter was non-oecd countries whose aggregate demand raised by 1.21 mln bbl / d (+2.4% qoq), while the demand from OECD states soften by 780 thsd bbl / d (- 1.6% qoq). On the year-on-year basis non-oecd countries in the 2 nd quarter of showed less pace of growth of 1.3%. As for demand from single states and regions, the most significant demand shrinkage in the 2 nd quarter was observed in Japan, where demand for oil dropped by 850 thsd bbl / d (- 19.9% qoq / -4.5% yoy). Also negative demand tendencies had a place in Korea (-80 thsd bbl / d or -3.0% qoq). The same time among the OECD states in the 2 nd quarter of demand for crude oil increased in Canada by 40 thsd bbl / d (+1.7% qoq / 0.0% yoy), in the USA by 20 thsd bbl / d (+0.1% qoq, +1.2% yoy) and in Mexico by 30 thsd bbl / d (+1.5% qoq, -0.5% yoy). In the considering period there was also quite strong demand for crude oil in China, where oil consumption grew by 300 thsd bbl / d or 2.3% qoq (+2.7% yoy). For, global demand growth forecast is lowered to 1.28 mln bbl / d in last IEA outlook. In 2019 growth accelerates slightly to 1.36 mln bbl / d, but there are risks to the forecast from escalating trade disputes. Demand growth for 2019 was revised lower by 110 thsd bbl / d and demand growth could cool down further later this year and into 2019. Chart 4.1.

Total apparent demand for oil in China in September surged on y-o-y basis by about 987 thsd bbl / d or 8.8%. The import of crude oil to China in September decreased to 37.21 mln metric tons (equals to 8.8 mln bbl / d) according to China's General Administration of Customs. The data includes imports from small independent refineries (teapots). Annually the import rose by 0.5%. China exported 4.07 mln metric tons of oil products (equals to 0.95 mln bbl / d). The annual growth was 6.5%. Net import of oil products was almost 1.15 mln metric tons in September, consequently lower by 1.5 mln metric tons. Chinese interest to SUV vehicles was encouraged by retail gasoline price fall in 2015 and still has been standing at the rather high levels. Overall in -18 SUV sales have stayed constantly above 600 thsd vehicles. The pace of growth of these gas-guzzlers in China 14 / 30

looks strong, comparing to prior years. In September 873 thsd SUV vehicles were sold. The same time apparent demand for oil products in September mostly increased due to rising in Diesel (7.8% m-o-m), Fuel Oil (+20.0% m-o-m) and Gasoline (+10.4% y-o-y) demand. Chart 4.7.

5. INVENTORIES Pursuant to the most recent IEA monthly report, total OECD commercial oil stocks were lower in June (the last reported month on oil stocks) by 7 mln bbl / d at 2.82 bn bbl. Crude oil inventories tumbled by 23.2 mln bbl (-2.1% mom), while total OECD products stocks rose by 17.1 mln bbl (+1.2% mom). The same time in comparison with a year ago figures total OECD commercial oil stocks in June were lower by 195.6 mln bbl or 6.5% with crude oil stocks decreased by 114.5 mln bbl (-9.5% yoy) and oil products stocks fell by 87.9 mln bbl (-5.9% yoy). From the standpoint of the regional structure of oil inventories the weakest situation in June was observed in Pacific region, where crude inventories declined by 0.6 mln bbl (-0.4%) mom though oil products in stocks increased by 2.5 mln bbl (+1.5%) mom. In Europe crude oil stocks tumbled m-o-m by 1.1 mln bbl or 0.3% and fell by 7.4 mln bbl or 2.0% y-o-y, while stocks of refined oil products increased by 0.7 mln bbl (+0.1%) on m-o-m and decreased by 44.6 mln bbl (-7.9%) on y-o-y basis. Stocks of crude oil in Americas region in June fell by 21.5 mln bbl (-3.6%) in m-o-m, refined oil products stocks increased by 14.0 mln bbl (+2.0%) in m-o-m. As for the by-product inventories structure, the increase in OECD inventories in June was noticed in Distillates that stocks added 2.4 mln bbl (+0.5% mom). The smallest stocks decrease took place in Gasoline that OECD inventories were lower by 4.7 mln bbl (-1.2%) on month-to-month basis. Fuel oil in OECD stocks fell by 4.7 mln bbl (-3.9%). To sum these all up we should conclude that global oil inventories in highly developed states (OECD) are still on quite elevated levels although oil stocks have finally showed significant draw downing, especially in the USA due to higher exports to Far East Asia.
